We consider the moduli space ${\cal M}(G)$ of $G$-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface $X$, where $G$ is a semisimple complex Lie group, and study the action of a finite group $\Gamma$ on ${\cal M}(G)$ induced by a holomorphic…
We study the geometry of the Hitchin fibration for $\mathcal{L}$-valued $G$-Higgs bundles over a smooth projective curve of genus $g$, where $G$ is a reductive group and $\mathcal{L}$ is a suitably positive line bundle. We show that the…
Let $(E,\Phi)\rightarrow (X,\omega_X)$ be a Higgs bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold. We suppose that the holomorphic vector bundle $E$ decomposes into a direct sum of holomorphic line bundles. In this paper, we give the necessary and…
Holomorphic chains on a Riemann surface arise naturally as fixed points of the natural C*-action on the moduli space of Higgs bundles. In this paper we associate a new quiver bundle to the Hom-complex of two chains, and prove that stability…

We link the periodicity of Hitchin's uniformizing Higgs bundle with the arithmetic geometry of its underlying curve. Some new relations are discovered. We also speculate on the whole class of periodic Higgs bundles.
This is the first in a series of papers constructing geometric models of twisted differential K-theory. In this paper we construct a model of even twisted differential K-theory when the underlying topological twist represents a torsion…
This is a survey of various results about spectral covers and their relationship to Higgs bundles. To a G-principal Higgs bundle on a variety S corresponds a cameral cover \widetilde{S} of S (a W-Galois cover, where W is the Weyl group of…
The cotangent bundle $T^*X$ of a smooth intersection $X$ of two quadrics admits a Lagrangian fibration determined by the intrinsic geometry of $X$. We show that this fibration is actually the Hitchin morphism if we endow $X$ with a…
The moduli space of Higgs bundles can be constructed as a quotient of an infinite-dimensional space and hence admits an orbit type decomposition. In this paper, we show that the orbit type decomposition is a complex Whitney stratification…
On a complex curve, we establish a correspondence between integrable connections with irregular singularities, and Higgs bundles such that the Higgs field is meromorphic with poles of any order. The moduli spaces of these objects are…
Let $X$ be any rational surface. We construct a tilting bundle $T$ on $X$. Moreover, we can choose $T$ in such way that its endomorphism algebra is quasi-hereditary. In particular, the bounded derived category of coherent sheaves on $X$ is…
We discuss geometrical aspects of Higgs systems and Toda field theory in the framework of the theory of vector bundles on Riemann surfaces of genus greater than one. We point out how Toda fields can be considered as equivalent to Higgs…
Hecke modifications of vector bundles have played a significant role in several areas of mathematics. They appear in subjects ranging from number theory to complex geometry. This article intends to be a friendly introduction to the subject.…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective complex curve of genus $g \geq 2$ and let $\M_X(2,\Lambda)$ be the moduli space of semi-stable rank-$2$ vector bundles over $X$ with fixed determinant $\Lambda$. We show that the wobbly locus, i.e., the locus…
